A review by cheoelm
Fruits Basket, Vol. 7 by Natsuki Takaya
5.0
Hiro gets introduced and I forgot how much I disliked this little brat. After reading the volume, I remembered that he's a brat because of his feelings towards Kisa and not being able to protect him, but that doesn't excuse his behavior towards Tohru.
We also learn more about Arisa and how her and Tohru became friends. It was nice to see more of Tohru's mother and how even though she had quit her gang, she still could fall back into those habits if she needed to. I don't approve of her saying she had beat up a bunch of middle schoolers, but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she didn't actually do that and just scared them off. Either way, the encounter that Arisa had while hanging with Tohru and friends brought up her memories of being in a gang and how she's doing better without them.
